In this new collection of short works, titles like “A Backwoods Eatery With a Side of Velcro Papaw” and “Alien Tummy Tuck” are enough to pique the interest of any avid reader. And there are memorable lines sprinkled throughout, such as, “I will not be a contestant in a wet T-shirt contest until my breasts look more like breasts, and less like something I should tuck into my pants.”

But then Baeli offers more, revealing her ability to be just as serious as she is funny, such as the story “The House of Escher” and the darker piece “Chickens Come Home.”

This collection will provide entertainment and edification from a fresh new voice in both fiction and non-fiction.

“From the sublime to the ridiculous, Kelli Jae Baeli leaves nothing sacred, and everything open to scrutiny, in this collection of works that show her versatility, humor, and unique voice.”~Kindred Ink Writers Initiative

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply HilariousBy Michele on August 18, 2017Format: Kindle EditionThis collection of cranium essays by Jae Baeli is simply hilarious. Do yourself a favor and read this book because you will be rolling with laughter over essays such as Punkin’s Big Adventure and Barbie’s Cutlery. Punkin’s Big Adventure is her attempt to write a children’s story but the outcome is unlike any children’s story that I’ve ever read. There’s also a corresponding link to a YouTube video that had me in tears from laughing so much. In Barbie’s Cutlery she describes purchasing and using pink plastic Barbie cutlery to avoid the sound of metal on stoneware which she equates to nails on a blackboard. I wonder if she still uses this cutlery? Anyway, read this book!

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"I now have a bone spur on each shoulder. I think I might be sprouting wings."

Politics Quotes

"People feel removed from sexism. 'I'm not a sexist, but I'm not a feminist.' They think there's this fuzzy middle ground. There's no fuzzy middle ground. You either believe that women are people or you don't. It's that simple." (Joss Whedon)

Favorite Quotes

“...if you try to make a shrimp boil, but the bag of spices bursts, and so you just toss it in along with whatever spices you can find in the pantry--you can make homemade pepper spray. Unintentionally...And everyone at your dinner party will run outside for the next hour, coughing and tearing up as if they've been maced, because technically they kind of have been, because mace was one of the spices I found in the panty. I blame whoever makes spice out of mace, and I remind my gasping dinner guests that even if I did mace them, I did it in an old fashioned, homemade, Martha Stewart sort of way. With love.” ~ Jenny Lawson, Let's Pretend This Never Happened

Only 1 VP choice will give us someone infinitely qualified for that job & the next. Only 1 who can heal our Foreign Policy disaster. Only 1 who got almost 66 MILLION votes. Only 1 that #Putin & #trump hate the most. America desperately needs @HillaryClinton #HillaryforVP

We have missed an important news story. After speaking with Putin very early this week, Trump ordered 9,000 NATO troops out of Germany, where they help protect Europe from Russia. Who will keep Putin from taking over Eastern Europe? Not Trump. He was punishing Merkel.
